Reading
Constructed, not stored: each reading below is assembled from what the tradition attributes to the body, the sign and the house. It describes the symbolism — it is not a claim about a person, and unlike the positions it sits beside, none of it is something this site can check.
☉ Sun in Aries · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 3
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 3
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the daily traffic of information.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.10°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.49°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.58°

♂ Mars ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.80°

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 1.15°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
